What you are saying then is that you have used your swing trade account for the last 2 days to scalp countertrend long?(ie...like a daytrade account.)laptop1 said:
While your previous trades were quite impressive, this just doesn't make sense to me.

I do trade Oil...You on about the Live call I made buying Crude Oil at $51.00.
As for today I made good money DAY TRADING. I did give a one Live call what I call a semi postion trade, but it didn't work out, I was a little early on the long trade today, buying at 12111 it went down some more, so I doubled up to avr the position and then got out at B/E....However I had a good day, Its not worth saying how much I won or how many points I made, because I didn't post live...From experience I here traders saying I made 100 points today, then made another 70 points on the way down, but they always say after the event. This is not my style, if I'm going to give a trade out, its will be a live call....So to answer you question I had a good

Hi laptop --- interested in your target price here of 12195 and the reason why you chose that price.
The dow will very often just drop below the hundred mark to take stops out and possibly reverse as you will already know but has been known to reverse just above the hundred level and catch traders unaware as you will also know. With that in mind would a target of between 12200 and 12205 been a better bet ?
As it happens the move reversed at 12207 which is a little more suprising again and my idea would have failed also but overall would you be more likely to reach target price with my suggestion ? As I watch the chart now we are frustratingly back up to opening price and flirting with the possibility of a loss now.
By the way I bow to your superior knowledge and trading capability so if you want to dismiss my suggestion feel free to do so

bog standard minimal - basic!
do I need to upgrade then?
aaahhh, I see it. Gold = RT futures.
do you recommend them (prophet.net)? are your brokers charting not sufficient?
EDIT: thansk roguetrader, but didnt work. I think I need the subscribed package for teh futures.

The Chart Stream section rather than the Java should do it Trendie, it is YMM07 but you won't get live without subscribing, it will be delayed 15 or so mins. You can also get free EOD on the YM without the stream in the Snap Charts area.
Hope this helps.

I use IQ Trader Platform for charts to zoom, when taking the sgnals, but for TA back veiw I like Prophet..you dont need fancy charts to make money, I have everything I want with them..on the Dow you can go back to 1901, if you wish..I recommend themtrendie said:

I was looking to take todays low out, just off Target...I have patterns to get me out but I dont have the time to post every signal on an intraday basis
There was signal to get out at 12226,but left it run, knowing the market is still weak, Anyway, we are still in the trade making 14 points lol at the time of writing this to you.

I said it would be a good place to add to a short. However I did not say I added to the short..I said it be a good place to add and if you get a chance take it..But lets say I did take it, the stop would be reduced to half of the original stop. For ease of following I will keep it as simple as possible.....Trade 14, where I doubled up, I dont realy want to give calls like that, they are to fast and hard to follow...
95% of my trades on this thread are simple to follow, place an order and wait for a fill then place a stop and profit target...
Still in the trade from short at 12265..........Shall we get out at the close?? I decide in 15 minschindl said:
